    Study Notes

    Genomics Overview

    • The main focus of genomics is the study of the structure, function, and evolution of genomes.

    High-Throughput Sequencing

    • High-throughput sequencing in genomics is done using the Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) method.
    • NGS stands for Next Generation Sequencing in the context of genomics.

    Challenges of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

    • A challenge associated with NGS is dealing with the large amounts of data generated.

    NGS Techniques

    • Examples of NGS techniques include Illumina, PacBio, and Oxford Nanopore.
    • Sanger sequencing is NOT a type of NGS technique.

    Emulsion PCR in NGS

    • The purpose of emulsion PCR in NGS is to generate millions of copies of DNA fragments.

    Characteristics of High-Throughput Sequencing

    • High-throughput sequencing is distinguished from Sanger sequencing by its ability to process millions of DNA fragments in parallel.
